“…In recent years, UBM has been applied for the diagnosis of PA or RA patients in some isolated case reports. Shigeyasu et al retrospectively studied the UBM application on CCO in adult and older children patients [5,[17][18][19]. In addition, Nischal have reported the UBM examination under anesthesia in 13 cases of infants with CCO.…”

Aim. Congenital corneal opacities (CCOs) are the major causes of early visual deprivation in infants. Balloon ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) examination is an effective method to diagnose CCO. However, whether it is suitable for children examination is still unknown. Methods. 26 Peters’ anomaly (PA) or Rieger’s anomaly (RA) infants with congenital corneal opacities (CCO) (40 eyes) underwent UBM examinations to study their imaging features. Results. Based on the results, they were divided into UBM Dx-Type I: Descemet’s membrane (DM) and endothelium have heterogenous or discontinuous echo accompanied with corneal stroma echo-enhanced or shallow anterior chamber. Type II: Type I alteration plus abnormal strand of iris extended to the border of the posterior corneal defect or iridocorneal adhesion. Type III: Type I or II combined with the abnormal hyperechoic lens, lens luxation, or keratolenticular adhesion. Type IV: echoes of the DM and the endothelium are continuous, corneal stroma echo is enhanced, and an abnormal strand of peripheral iris extends to the prominent Schwalbe line, accompanied by iris stroma or pupil heteromorphism and a shallow or flat anterior chamber. Conclusion. UBM not only could accurately evaluate the anterior segment abnormalities in CCO infants but also would be a step forward for the management of PA- and RA-associated CCO.

“…O tipo II é uma forma mais grave, associado a opacidades corneanas mais densas e adesões do cristalino e da íris nas regiões do leucoma. 2,3 A Anomalia de Peters pode ser uma alteração isolada ou estar acompanhada de outras manifestações oculares, como glaucoma, microcórnea, microftalmia, hipoplasia da fóvea e do nervo óptico. Quando há acometimento sistêmico, como atraso no desenvolvimento, fenda labiopalatina ou defeitos cardíacos congênitos, é chamada de Síndrome de Peters-plus.…”

A Anomalia de Peters é uma malformação do segmento anterior do olho, secundária a um defeito na migração das células da crista neural. É caracterizada por opacidade corneana central e alterações no estroma posterior, na membrana de Descemet e no endotélio. O objetivo deste artigo é ilustrar a Anomalia de Peters tipo I, relatando um caso de uma paciente de 4 anos, assim como discutir o manejo clínico e cirúrgico e as complicações da doença.

“…The corneal opacity is either central or peripheral, without vascularization and endothelium and DM defects result in corneal edema. Type II is frequently bilateral, but often asymmetric, with denser corneal opacification and cornea-lenticular contact with juxtaposition of the lens or cataract [12]. Other ocular anomalies include glaucoma in 50% of cases, microcornea, cornea plana, sclerocornea, chorioretinal coloboma, iris coloboma, angle and iris dysgenesis, persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous, microphthalmia, optic nerve hypoplasia and foveal hypoplasia [4,11].…”
